Summary
This case study documents the operational challenges faced by Rohit Ferrotech Ltd., a manufacturing company under the S.K. Patni Group, as it underwent significant growth. The company, headquartered in Kolkata, India and specializing in alloy steel and ferro alloys, encountered difficulties due to siloed data systems that hindered coordination across its supply chain. The project aimed at addressing these inefficiencies involved the implementation of a centralized ERP system, which replaced earlier fragmented local server systems in six factories. The case study details the benefits realized post-implementation, including a 20% increase in procurement savings, a 10% decrease in inventory levels, and a 20% productivity gain attributed to automation in invoicing and logistics. The insights provided help understand the impact of integrated systems on operational efficiency in the manufacturing sector.
